I watched as they took the Sahlen’s dog to the charcoal grill and charred it to a perfect level. Then they took some nacho cheese and a ladle full of chili to the dog to finish it off. It looked good, but when I bit into it I was confronted with mostly disappointment. The hot dog itself was good, but I couldn’t have been more disappointed by the chili, which essentially had no taste. I would say it came from a can, but that is almost an insult to canned chili.

I left disappointed, but knew I had the original waiting for me and hoped it would be better than Theodore’s.
